Arthroscopic ankle fusion

After a lengthy period of increasing discomfort and limitation in movement of my left ankle,
I was referred for consultation to Mr Mark Farndon in June 2015. He outlined the alternatives
for management of my condition and provided a clear and succinct description of the
recommended operative procedure. As I had elected to have a spinal anaesthetic, I was able
to observe this process (arthroscopic ankle fusion) directly on the day.

Recovery was uneventful and over a year later, with comfort restored and a full range of function re-established, the outcome has been entirely successful.

Ankle ligament injury in an elite athlete

As an international level decathlete, I have needed surgical help from Mark Farndon on three occasions over the past few years, most recently with a bad ankle ligament injury.I have total confidence in him, and his approach has always been to work with me to design a surgical strategy and rehabilitation plan to enable me to return to training and competition at the earliest – but safest – opportunity. He really understands my needs as an individual and as an athlete.
